Braised Featherblade of Irish Beef with Poached Gnocchi, Fresh Basil, Wild Mushrooms and Truffle Oil Recipe by Colin Greensmith from Pallas Foods

This Braised Featherblade recipe is a nod to traditional Italian braised beef recipes, using Irish Nature beef featherblade and fresh veal stock.

Ingredients:

4 Irish Nature Beef Featherblades
100mls cooking Oil
4 shallots
2 cloves of garlic (Crushed)
1 stick of celery – Diced
1 carrot – Diced
500ml Red Cooking Wine
1 litre veal stock
100g potato gnocchi
100g Wild mushrooms
100g Butter
10mls Truffle Oil
10g Parmesan – Shaved
Fresh basil chiffonade

Method:

1. Season the featherblade steaks with sea salt and fresh black pepper.
2. In a heavy bottomed pan, seal off the featherblade steaks in a little cooking oil, then transfer them to a casserole dish.
3. In the same pan, sweat off the shallots, garlic, carrot and celery. Add the red wine and veal stock and bring to the boil.
4. Pour the liquid over the steaks, cover with cling film and braise in the oven for 2 and a half hours. Once cooked, reduce the cooking liquid & reserve.
5. Poach the gnocchi in salted water until al dente, strain and toss in a little olive oil.
6. Sweat off the mushrooms in a little butter and add to the gnocchi, season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
7. To plate up, slice the featherblade steaks and place on one side of a plate with some of their reduced cooking liquid.
8. Place the gnocchi and mushrooms to the other side then add the basil chiffonade, grated parmesan and a drizzle of truffle oil and serve.
